October

Hey Locals!

It’s candy weekend, daylight saving time and it’s jam packed with some fun events! But don’t eat too much candy — and don’t forget to set your clocks back on Sunday morning! I always feel happy to get an extra hour of sleep but sad that it’s dark at 4:30p.m. When it comes to daylight saving time … do you like it? Should our country keep it, or just get rid of it?

Should we keep daylight savings time or cancel it?

Family Idea of the Month: “Memory Swap Night

We just watched Toy Story 1-4 in October and it was so fun sharing my movie favorites with the kids. So I figured your family would enjoy doing this as well.

Instead of a regular movie night, let each family member pick one favorite childhood show or movie — no vetoes allowed! Make it a full experience with themed snacks (like Scooby Snacks, pizza rolls, or popcorn sundaes) or do a themed meal by ordering in with Door Dash.


Bonus tip: Take a group photo each month — by next year you’ll have a whole “memory album” of your fun nights in.
